Which cricket match is notorious for under-arm bowling?
The ‘incident’ took place in the third match in the World Series final between Australia and New Zealand. The final was the best of five, 50 over games. The last batsman of New Zealand Brian McKechnie, had to score six runs from the final delivery of the over, to tie the game and force a replay. To prevent this, Greg Chappell instructed his brother Trevor Chappell to bowl under-arm, which was still permitted in Australian One-day games! Within weeks this practice was banned. Trevor Chappell bowled under-arm and the batsman could only manage to block the ball, which was rolling along the ground. Australia won by six wickets.
It was a shameful incident, and Greg later expressed regret for his unsportsmanlike behaviour
